OPTIONS

CONTINUOUS OPERATION FAN KIT

The optional continuous operation fan kit for the SG-500 allows the user to operate at 500W PEP or CW under high stress conditions. The assembly is a 12VDC low profile fan attachment outside the amplifier. It is brushless and is activated automatically when heatsink or ambient temperature exceed 50 degrees C. The fan also extends the unit’s operation from +70 to +85 degrees C ambient temperature under normal 500W PEP setting and allows continuous(24 hour) operation at 375W CW with a maximum room temperature of 35 degrees C.

REMOTE CONTROL ON/OFF UNIT

This compact box permits convenient remote-control operation of the SG-500 amplifier and includes an ON/OFF switch with LED for visual indication of DC power. Supplied with the unit are 15 feet of control cable and required plugs for the panel connection to the amplifier. The detailed instructions included simplify installation and operation
